Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

March 11, 2015.
    The Department of Agriculture has submitted the following 
information collection requirement(s) to OMB for review and clearance 
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13. Comments 
regarding: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for 
the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including 
whether the information will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy 
of the agency's estimate of burden including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used; (c) ways to enhance the quality, 
utility and clarity of the information to be collected; (d) ways to 
minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are 
to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology.
    Comments regarding this information collection received by April 
16, 2015 will be considered. Written comments should be addressed to: 
Desk Officer for Agriculture, Office of Information and Regulatory 
Affairs, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), New Executive Office 
Building, 725-17th Street NW., Washington, DC 20502. Commenters are 
encouraged to submit their comments to OMB via email to: 
[email protected] or fax (202) 395-5806 and to Departmental 
Clearance Office, USDA, OCIO, Mail Stop 7602, Washington, DC 20250-
7602. Copies of the submission(s) may be obtained by calling (202) 720-
8958.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information 
unless the collection of information displays a currently valid OMB 
control number and the agency informs potential persons who are to 
respond to the collection of information that such persons are not 
required to respond to the collection of information unless it displays 
a currently valid OMB control number.

Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service

    Title: Importation of Gypsy Moth Host Materials from Canada.
    OMB Control Number: 0579-0142.
    Summary of Collection: The United States Department of Agriculture 
(USDA) is responsible for preventing plant diseases or insect pests 
from entering the United States, preventing the spread of pests not 
widely distributed in the United States, and eradicating those imported 
pests when eradication is feasible. Under the Plant Protection Act (7 
U.S.C. 7701 et seq.), the Secretary of Agriculture is authorized to 
regulate the importation of plants, plant products, and other articles 
to prevent the introduction of injurious plant pests. The Plant 
Protection and Quarantine program within USDA's Animal and Plant Health 
Inspection Service (APHIS) is responsible for ensuring that these 
regulations are enforced.
    Need and Use of the Information: APHIS will collect information 
from individuals both within and outside the United States using 
phytosanitary certificates, certificates of origin, a written statement 
and a compliance agreement. Information collected will ensure that 
importing foreign logs, trees, shrubs, and other articles do not harbor 
plant or insect pests such as the gypsy moth. Failing to collect this 
information would cripple APHIS' ability to ensure that trees, shrubs, 
logs, and a variety of other items imported from Canada do not harbor 
gypsy moths.

    Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit; 
Individuals or households; Federal Government.
    Number of Respondents: 2,131.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion.
    Total Burden Hours: 128.

Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service

    Title: Infectious Salmon Anemia (ISA)--Payment of Indemnity.
    OMB Control Number: 0579-0192.
    Summary of Collection: The Animal Health Protection Act (AHPA) of 
2002 is the primary Federal law governing the protection of animal 
health. The law gives the Secretary of Agriculture broad authority to 
detect, control, or eradicate pest or diseases of livestock or poultry. 
Infectious Salmon Anemia (ISA) is a clinical disease resulting from 
infection with the ISA virus; signs include hemorrhaging, anemia, and 
lethargy. ISA poses a substantial threat to the economic viability and 
sustainability of salmon aquaculture in the United States and abroad. 
The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) will collect 
information using VS Form 1-22 ISA Program Enrollment Form and VS Form 
1-23 All Species Appraisal & Indemnity Claim Form.
    Need and Use of the Information: APHIS uses the following 
information activities to reimburse aquaculture industry businesses; 
conduct biosecurity, protocols and audits; develop site-specific ISA 
action plans; compile fish inventories and mortality reports (and keep 
records of the inventories and reports); and conduct disease 
surveillance. Each program participant must sign an ISA Program 
Enrollment Form in which they agree to participate fully in USDA's and 
the State of Maine's ISA Program. APHIS will collect the owner's name 
and address, the number of fish for which the owner is seeking payment, 
and the appraised value of each fish. The owner must also certify as to 
whether the fish are subject to a mortgage. Without the information it 
would be impossible for APHIS to launch its program to contain and 
prevent ISA outbreaks in the United States.
    Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
    Number of Respondents: 12.
    Frequency of Responses: Recordkeeping; Reporting: On occasion.
    Total Burden Hours: 484.

Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service

    Title: Importation of Clementines from Spain.
    Omb Control Number: 0579-0203.
    Summary of Collection: Under the Plant Protection Act (7 U.S.C. 
7701 et seq.), the Secretary of Agriculture is authorized to regulate 
the importation of plants, plant products, and other articles to 
prevent the introduction of injurious plant pests. The regulations in 
``Subpart--Fruits and Vegetables,'' 7 CFR 319.56 through 319.56-67, 
prohibits or restrict the importation of certain fruits and vegetables 
into the United States from certain parts of the world to prevent the 
introduction and dissemination of plant pest, including fruit flies. 
Under the regulations, clementines from Spain are subject to certain 
conditions before entering the United States to ensure that exotic 
plant pest, such as the Mediterranean fruit fly, are not introduced 
into the United States.
    Need and Use of the Information: APHIS uses the following 
information collection activities to allow the importation of 
clementines from Spain when the requirements include: Provisions that 
the clementines be grown in accordance with a Mediterranean fruit fly 
management program established by the Government of Spain; Trapping and 
Control Records; Phytosanitary Certificate; Labeling and Traceback; 
Cold Treatment Data for Consignments; Trust Fund; and Grower 
Registration and Agreement.
    Failure to collect this information would cripple APHIS' ability to 
ensure that clementines from Spain are not carrying fruit flies.
    Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit; Federal 
Government.
    Number of Respondents: 4,508.
    Frequency of Responses: Recordkeeping; Reporting: On occasion.
    Total Burden Hours: 6,507.
